PUNS FOR ANNUAL GET UNDER WAY
STUDENT SKETCH
Mary Elton stated with noted
:mphasis that she plans to do
jverything but study during the
Christmas holidays. The climax
to her proposed fun-filled two
weeks will be a trip to the cities.
Barb Hallett is going to scoot
up to Fergus Falls, her ex-home
town, to visit a special gal friend
and, I might add, a very special boy
friend, too.
Larry Gray is going to devote
most of his vacation time to work
(silly boy), but a few days in
Stewartville, Minn., with Ed Egen,
certainly wont' make Larry a dull
boy.
Genoa Knight is going to paint
Montevideo, Minn, red with her
plans for plenty of fun and excitement.
Wayne Field will spend the major part of his vacation faithfully
selling Fuller brushes and sterling
silver. The remainder of his time
will be spent at home playing
Santa Claus for the miniature
members of his family.
Peg Weir is going to attend a
huge wedding in her hometown,
Faribault, Minn. Peg also plans
to spend the remaining vacation
days having loads of fun.
Miss Endicott, our Zoology and
Biology professor, is going to
spend her vacation in Rochester,
cooking a big Christmas dinner,
and catching up on a lot of back
work.
Mr. Singley, our Chemistry professor, plans to have a houseful of
relatives to brighten the Christmas
holiday. He also plans to devote
a great deal of time writing a procedure for semi-micro qualitative
analysis.
Our J. C. has an abundance of
students, so many that it is difficult
to become acquainted with all of
them. To help you get to know
them better, let me introduce one
to you. You probably know him,
but let me tell you something
about him anyway.
This man, and he isn't Santa
Claus, graduated from Rochester
High School. The Combat Infantry and Signal Corps took up almost three years of his life; some
of it was spent in New Guinea,
Okinawa, and other western points
The Pre-Med course is the object
of his toil; his ambition is to get
through school ■ with average
grades. You probably know him
better by his camera. Photography
has had a large part in his life for
the past four years. It got him a
job in X-ray at the Clinic.
Hunting small game and strolling through the woods in solitude
are ideal ways of spending his leisure time. Eating squirrel baked in
sherry also appeals to him.
Jim Schneider's ideal woman is
intelligent, understanding, non-
possessive and a good companion.
She is no doubt dependable, too, as
independability is his pet peeve.
J. C. meet Jim Schneider.
J. C. ENJOYS ASSEMBLY
—GAMMA RHO PARTY
PATRONIZE THE STORES
THAT USE OUR SPACE
Faculty and student body met
December 16th at 9:50 A. M. in
the Central auditorium for the
Chirstmas assembly. "Agnus Dei"
by George Bizet was the opening
number sung by Patricia Miles
with Mary Jo Gerlicher playing the
violin obligato, accompanied by
Orvis Ross. Following this was
the "Fugue" in G Minor by Bach,
featuring Orvis Ross and Philip
Bach at two pianos.
After these splendid musical performances, the one-act play, "Dust
of the Road," by Kenneth Sawyer
Goodman, was presented by the
Rajester Players under the direction of Flora McGhee. It was a
Christmas fantasy portraying the
temptation to greed. Peter Steel,
played by Richard Patterson, in his
country home was tempted to keep
the thirty one-hundred dollar bills
entrusted to him by an old friend.
His plans were changed when the
spirit of Judas Iscariot, Johnmiles
Johnson, appeared to him and his
wife, and warned them dramatically of the remorse felt by anybody
who betrays a friend.
Aline Jennings was well cast as
Prudence Steel, and her uncle was
Milton Lentz.
The play was effectively done by
the Rajester cast and engendered
significant Christmas spirit in the
audience.
"Liebesfreud" by Kreisler, and
"The Parade of the Wooden Soldiers" by Jessel were the two
lively pieces so expertly rendered
by Mr. Karl Dubbert on the xylophone, accompanied by Mrs. Emil
Heintz. These two numbers were
followed by an encore number of
the always favorite "Silent Night."
The Junior College A Capella
Choir then furnished a climactic
ending to the program under the
direction of Sydney Suddendorf.
They sang the following Christmas songs: "When the Sun Had
Sunk to Rest," an old English
piece; "Deck the Halls," a Welsh
air; "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen," a traditional English carol;
and the welr-known "O, Little
Town of Bethlehem" by Redner.
On Thursday, December 19,
classes were dismissed at three
o'clock when all students and the
faculty gathered at Coffman Hall
for the annual Christmas party
sponsored by the Ghamma Rho
Society under the direction of Miss
Marie Matt.
The program opened with the
reading of the Christmas story
from Luke II, Chapter 2, by Goldie
Dugstad. Patricia Miles then sang
two lovely modern Christmas songs
accompanied by Philip Bach.
Aline Jennings then read the
lovely short-story "The Christmas
EDITORS CHOSEN
The plans for the J. C. annual
are getting under way. At a meeting called on December 10, the
sections for the book and the section managers were chosen. Heading the opening part, which includes the dedication and faculty,
is Isabelle Schulz. Joan Hanson is
in charge of the sophomore pictures and copy. The pictures, incidentally are to be portraits done
by down-town photographers,
rather than candids. This decision
was made at a special sophomore
meeting called for that purpose on
December 10. The athletic section
will be planned by Larry Haggerty and Dave Pennington, and
clubs and organizations will be arranged with JoAnn Neill as the
editor. Another part of the book
reflecting the social activities in
Junior College will be managed by
Norma Jenewein, and last but not
least, the candid section will be
organized by Fred Arab and Dean
Williams.
There are other phases of the
work for the annual which are
equally important. Photography is
such a phase. The student photographers are going to have a big
job in front of them, but with Lee
Owens and Bill Tysseling to do
the camera clicking, the pictures
for the year book will be well in
hand. No less important are the
art and make-up which are to be
worked out under the direction of
Jack Prill. To get the annual
printed and distributed are two
jobs which come under the headings of business and publicity.
These matters will be taken care
of with Wayne Field and George
McCallum in charge. With these
able managers, Junior College
should have a really good year
book.
Guest" by Selma Lagelof. The entire group sang several Xmas carols
directed by Edward Egen and accompanied by Norma Jenewein.
Lunch was served by some of the
members of the Ghamma Rho Society. Cookies, cider, nutbread,
and candy were welcomed by all
